Hear It From Others on Their Real Estate Journey
The thing that sets Clarence apart is real knowledge and skill in terms of managing a property related transaction. From negotiation, to managing a client, working with a buyer vs seller and how to get the best possible value for the client (i.e. ME!), everything was very skilfully executed. This is something very few agents I've met can do and this is why I will always work with him for all my property needs. Highly recommended.

Clarence gave clear and important advice in our purchase that allowed us to secure the right property. We knew we could trust him, especially as he remained positive and confident when there were hiccups and the process took much longer than expected. He had our best interest at all times and covered every angle to make sure the purchase was right.

Clarence's level of personalism, clear communication, integrity, and drive as a realtor is the best we have ever experienced across our travels in Australia, Hong Kong, and now Singapore. He truly understands our requirements, which enables him to find the best properties to match our needs. He was also prompt to answer our many questions, familiarise us with the facilities and transport in around the properties we were considering, and negotiate the best possible deal. I would highly recommend Clarence for your Singapore property agent needs.

Finding a suitable house is not easy and Clarence has skilfully help us to find a house that we both like, and negotiated a price lower than our expectations!
A house that is for own-stay is a long term decision. So the house has to suit our evolving needs. It is not just about current requirements, it has to meet future possible needs. Clarence considered things for us from all angles, to ensure there is no blindspot in our purchase.
It is common to enter a sale & purchase process with certain ideas in mind. But we realised it’s important to keep an open mind and work with our realtor to tweak the process as we went along. Clarence was honest in his advice, therefore we knew we could trust him to get the best result for us.

My wife and I feel Clarence gave sound advice. He exuded confidence, have in depth knowledge and sound experience. One year later, we feel satisfied that Clarence has helped us to make sound choices in sale, rental and purchase of our homes. He created peace and happiness in our real estate journey.
We think it is important to be comfortable and trust the realtor we work with. This person should hear our needs and offer us the best options. We felt that Clarence did that. He was honest with his advice, even if it wasn’t initially palatable to us. Looking back, we are grateful for his honesty and professionalism, and he looked out for our interest.

Clarence was a great help, as he took charge and assisted me tremendously in the purchase and subsequent tenancy of my property.
I am new and fresh to property ownership, and renting out my property as a landlord. It was vital that I managed to work with a responsible, resourceful and responsive realtor. I’m very grateful to Clarence that my real estate journey from start till now is a smooth one so far.
Despite doing a lot of research on my own, a good realtor is still essential. Clarence is very resourceful and he was very clear in our communication throughout the whole process. As a medical professional, I know how important good communication is.

Clarence sold our house at the price we wanted - it’s that simple! The fact that he did it right in the middle of the Covid pandemic - what an amazing achievement!
We had worked with many realtors previously with no results. They made so many claims and promises, made us jump through hoops to sort out viewings with no end result.
We know a sale or purchase is a combination of many factors and complexities. Therefore, a good realtor must be knowledgeable about his target audience. At the same time he should update and involve his client on the process.
A house sale would face constantly changing circumstances. Clarence reviewed the situation regularly with us and he was able to solve problems along the way. He gave us advice, offered innovative solutions and made sure all aspects are covered.
Clarence had a very clear plan for our sale and he guided us all the way - firmly and confidently. He was with us every step of the way, even when we went through a major family health crisis halfway through the sale. Beyond professional abilities, he was kind and patient with us. This human touch was especially important to us, as this was a significant family decision.

I started my house search process much earlier before I met Clarence. But it was unproductive and I exhausted all my options, yet the search process wasn’t getting clearer. It became very stressful to the point that I had many sleepless nights!
I was introduced to Clarence and after our initial discussion, his professional advice provided a lot of clarity. I saw that there were other viable options that I didn’t consider before. He literally pointed me in the right direction! This shortened the purchase process and saved me a lot of time! Else I would have taken more time and possibly missed the market opportunity!
For someone who is very cautious about financial matters, to upgrade my purchase option is not a simple decision. But Clarence helped me to understand my own requirements better and to clarify for me what I really wanted. If I’ve met Clarence earlier, I would have bought my property earlier!
I realised the important thing is to start with the right professional advice. Don’t waste time going around on your own. Have a realtor who understands your needs, so that the person can guide you through the process in a clear and professional way. Clarence was that person for me!

We recently moved from Australia to Singapore. Clarence has been a fantastic trusted advisor to us given we have limited understanding of the Singapore rental market. Clarence spent time on the phone with me whilst still in Australia to get a sense of the various locations around Singapore which would be suitable for a family of four. Clarence is a careful listener and provides a calming energy during what could have easily been a very stressful situation with any relocation.
Relocation is a stressful and major exercise. Thus trust, honesty and ability to understand our requirements are very important factors for us. Finding the appropriate home is a huge decision and one which requires the advisor to be completely customer centric. Clarence had our best interests and spent the time helping us evaluate the options, rather than seeking a quick contract.
To be successful in renting or buying a property, we have to be very clear about our top requirements, but also keep an open mind with options that we might not have considered. We were glad we were able to be honest with our thoughts with Clarence and his team, so that they could help us in a useful and timely manner. However, be mindful to listen and follow Clarence's instructions and take his advice at the same time, after all he is the expert. In short, it's a team effort!

I purchased my property without being physically in Singapore. After the careful selection of the condo and the unit, it was important for me that Clarence helped me to understand the subsequent purchase process.
He didn’t just send me a set of instructions, but ensured that I knew what I was doing. He managed to simply a complex process and made it easy for me to understand. Clarence clearly knew what he was doing and provided clear guidance. His confidence gave me assurance throughout the process. It was as if I was buying in-person in Singapore.
Regardless of whether one is buying in Singapore or from an overseas location, every buyer will appreciate the clarity. Sometimes anxiety is unspoken. Clarence took the initiative to address my concerns and understand my needs.

The biggest benefit we got from working with Clarence was the clarity & confidence we gained to move forward with the sale of our flat & our subsequent purchase of a new home.
Selling & buying a property is a major decision for our family. Naturally, I had many underlying consideration and concerns. Clarence was professional & dependable. He helped us to navigate through the complexities in all the different stages & made simple the details for us.
Before one starts on their real estate process, we think it is important to identify our motivations & goals (e.g. need for space, location preference, budget etc) and ensure we work out financial details clearly. We were very happy that we could have an open communication with Clarence and he clarified our doubts at every step of the way.
He worked with integrity and at our interest at heart, which was very important for us for a major decision like this.
